Maintenance and servicing

6.3.1

Maintenance by Metrohm service

Maintenance of the 766 IC Sample Processor is best done as part of an

annual service performed by specialists from the Metrohm company. If

work is frequently performed with caustic and corrosive chemicals, it

may be necessary to shorten the interval between servicing.
The Metrohm service department is always willing to offer expert advice

on the maintenance and servicing of all Metrohm instruments.

6.3.2

Care of the unit

The 766 IC Sample Processor requires proper care and attention. Ex-

cessive contamination of the instrument could possibly lead to mal-

functions and a shorter service life of the inherently rugged mechanical

and electronic parts.
Wipe up spilled chemicals and solvents immediately. The connectors

(in particular the power supply) should be protected from contamina-

tion. The 766 IC Sample Processor should never be operated without

plug cover (see section 2.3.3).

The unit has been constructed in such a way as to virtually eliminate

the possibility of penetration of corrosive media into the interior of the

instruments. If such a situation does occur, disconnect the mains

plug of the 766 IC Sample Processor immediately to prevent extensive

damage to the instrument electronics. Inform Metrohm service if your

instrument has been damaged in such a way.

The instrument must not be opened by untrained personnel. Please

comply with the safety notes in section 1.5.1.
